EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past and explore the enchanting interior of the Iceberg, a remarkable attraction from the Royal Naval Exhibition of 1891. This image, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the Victorian and Edwardian era, showcasing the military's innovative spirit and engineering prowess. The Royal Naval Exhibition, held in Chelsea, London, was an impressive display of naval power and technological advancements. The Iceberg, a key attraction, was a replica of an Arctic iceberg, designed to house various exhibits related to Arctic exploration and the Royal Navy's role in it. As you delve deeper into this vintage photograph, you'll notice the intricate details of the interior. The lantern slide reveals a hospital ward filled with patients, medical equipment, and uniformed personnel. The atmosphere is both clinical and homely, reflecting the compassionate care provided to sailors during that era. The military personnel in this image, dressed in their formal uniforms, exude a sense of discipline and professionalism. The use of natural light, filtered through the iceberg's glass walls, adds to the overall ambiance, creating an ethereal and otherworldly feel. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the Royal Naval Exhibition and serves as a reminder of the rich history of the British Navy. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of the past and the enduring legacy of these remarkable institutions.
